ScoutWalker III (K W3) Details

Being more capable, less expensive, and more expandable than any other two-motor walker design on the market makes this kit ideal for your walking robot experiments!

The ScoutWalker III utilizes BEAM Microcore technology in a very robust topology to make this two-motor walker have unusually good agility.This kit features:

  • GM2 and GM9 gear motors
  • Steel subframe construction
  • Built-in phototropic behavior via IR sensors
  • Two-stage turning gaits (gentle / hard)
  • Dual tactile sensors
  • Accepts Sumovore microcontroller brainboards for building "horse and rider" configurations. Influence or simply take full control of the ScoutWalker - it's up to you and your Sumovore Brainboard!

Note: The brainboards are hardware compatible, but Solarbotics is still working on their version of the software. In the meanwhile, feel free to attack this project using your own BS2, PIC or ATMega8L brainboard. All the connections are documented!
